Have a Nice Trip

One of my friends, CompetoGirl, teases me that every time I trip or fall down I manage to do it while no one is looking. It's part of my super-arsenal. And two days ago as I was walking along the MAIN road through campus - it happened. I tripped and went flying about two feet before catching myself. I managed to avoid a total fall-down, but it was large...and embarrassing. AND NO ONE SAW IT. I started thinking that maybe my friend was right, and then it happened. I was walking down the OTHER major road and I totally triped again. In the same day. And this time EVERYONE saw. People laughed, and tried to do that polite thing where they cover your mouth so you can't see that they're laughing, but you KNOW it. So, CompetoGirl -- here's to you being wrong. I am klutzy in public too.
